===[[Ditonmic family|Ditonmic or Lala-theyo family]] (P8, c<sup>4</sup>P4/13)===
This tempers out the ditonma, {{Monzo|-27 -2 13}} = 1220703125/1207959552. Thirteen ~[-12 -1 6> generators of about 407¢ equals a quadruple-compound 4th.  5/4 is equated to 1 octave minus 2 generators. An obvious 3-limit interpretation of the generator is 81/64, which implies 53-edo, which is a good tuning for this high-accuracy family of temperaments.

===[[Maquila family|Maquila or Trisa-segu family]] (P8, c<sup>7</sup>P5/17)===
This tempers out the maquila comma, 562949953421312/556182861328125 = {{Monzo|49 -6 -17}};. The generator is ~512/375 = ~535¢. Seventeen generators equals a septuple-compound 5th.  5/4 is equated to 3 octaves minus 6 generators. An obvious 11-limit interpretation of the generator is 11/8, leading to the Lala-selo temperament. However, Lala-selo isn't nearly as accurate as Trisa-segu.
